Chapter 82 Mrs Fox Is Jealous
In the elevator, Stanley calmly adjusted his wrinkle-free cuffs, seemingly unaffected despite the flight earlier.
On the other hand, Monica had become very clever and silently followed him into the office, looking like a good Samaritan turned victim. Luckily, Max is not around.
Stanley pulled out a tube of ointment left by Taylor from his drawer and handed it to her. “Use this. It’s quite effective.”
Rather than extending her hand, she glanced at the ointment and then back at him. “Could you help me?” she said, looking slightly embarrassed. “I can’t reach it with my injured hand.”
Before he could respond, she had turned around and quickly unbuttoned two buttons on her shirt, sliding it back a little to reveal her injured shoulder.
With the ointment still in his hand, Stanley hesitated for two seconds before opening it.
As luck would have it, Lydia saw the scene as she passed by the office and was shocked. What? Mr. Fox is applying ointment for Miss Keller? Such a rare sight has to be captured! So, she took out her phone and snapped
away,
Meanwhile, Stanley gently circled his fingertips on her injured shoulder, and Monica closed her eyes to savor this moment. For her, it was too surreal, both painful and blissful.
“All done.” He then handed her the ointment. “Get Lydia to apply it for you a few times a day.”
When she turned around, she found out that he wasn’t looking at her. Did he close his eyes the whole time?
After she returned to her own office with the ointment, Lydia hurriedly approached her. “Miss Keller, are you injured?”
Monica looked puzzled.
“I saw… Mr. Fox applying ointment for you.” Lydia showed her the photos. “I took them secretly. How are they?”
Seeing that, Monica felt delighted inside. “Send them to me.”
“Okay.”
No matter how he treated her, the feeling of his fingertips gently circling her shoulder was unforgettable. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
In the president’s office, with decor that was luxurious and extravagant, Stanley sat behind his desk and dialed Gael’s number. “Did you pass her the medical records?”
“I did. Madam has been reading them,” Gael reported. “She probably hasn’t finished yet. She hasn’t come – downstairs.”
“Okay.”
Before hanging up, Gael couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Fox, Madam asked about Mervin again.”
“What did you say?”novelxo.com fast update
“I said I don’t know him, but she seems suspicious.”
“Okay.”
After the call ended, Stanley leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes, his emotions difficult to discern.
In no time, the photo that Lydia had just taken began to circulate on the internet, causing a lot of discussion.
Two hours later, Stanley had just finished a project meeting and was leaving the clubhouse when Max saw the news and his face changed. “Mr. Fox, there is…”
“What’s wrong?”
Max showed him the high-definition photo that was circulating online.
At once, a layer of frost formed in Stanley’s deep and sharp eyes. “Take it down.”
“On it.”
After leaving the clubhouse, they got into the Lamborghini one after the other. The driver closed the door for them, and they headed toward the Fox Group office building.
In the car, Stanley was only thinking about Mervin. He will definitely find a chance to approach Melinda again.
I will never allow that!
Meanwhile, in Emerald Harbor, the afternoon sun was warm, and the fountain in the courtyard splashed sparkling water droplets.
In the living room on the second floor, Melinda stretched lazily after finishing reading all the medical records. She had taken extensive notes, filling up two whole pages, as the situation seemed quite complex.
After taking a sip of water, she picked up her phone to check the time, but a push notification popped up.
Out of curiosity, she opened it and saw an intimate photo of Stanley and Monica.
She was stunned for a few seconds, and then she looked closely at the photo again.
The woman’s clothes were slightly revealing, and she was enjoying herself with her eyes closed. This is in the office! Why did he go to Sunnyvale to find me then?! Is he crazy? She thought that he had a sour face because he was jealous of Mervin, but it turned out he had another woman in his heart.
